Probably not the last of the shots from this outing, just to warn you.

The water on Shays Run has always fascinated me...the color comes from natural tannins found in the dark, rich soil as the streams slowly meander through swampy areas before plunging into the Blackwater Canyon. Though not everyone's cup of tea, I think the water has so much character.

mm..though i love whilate and caramel..milk and honey sure is delicious!! such a crazy color from the low perspective, love the way it makes the moss just explode from the screen! beautiful capture, LA..lovin the ElakaLAs through your SWA eyes!
